That picture of the boat under construction, has a wood jig on the wintergarden so the rails can be laned up and welded.. The planking and scaffolding will be replaced with the regular deck boards. The wood on the bridge is a jig and platform for the tower bulkhead supports, guide for the welder so, from boat to boat at the yard.Rare picture.

U 3008 type XXI next to the Gillmore president Truman going aboard. Cool picture. And the IXC40 color in high seas is priceless. I'm blowing it up and mounting and framing that one.
